“Are you going to kiss my shoulders the whole flight to Germany?”

Not that I’d object.

“It’s also easy access for other things.” His eyes drop to my lap.

A heated blush creeps up my cheeks.

Chapter 32

Beckett

When we boarded, Arianne was chatting up a storm while leafing through a few travel magazines. Soon after taking off, she crashed. I didn’t expect to get a lot done during the flight, but since she was out, I put my time to good use.

I unfolded the seat tray from the armrest, pulled out my laptop and went to work. I was in the zone when a heavy weight landed on my arm. Arianne seems to prefer my shoulder to the pillow the flight attendant brought her. I tucked the pillow under her head, three times, but she’s now curled on her side, hugging my bicep like a koala bear. This is the closest I’ve ever been to sleeping next to a woman.

Because of her closeness and the lovely floral scent of her perfume, I’ve been sporting a raging hard-on I can’t do anything about other than curse under my breath. Now, I need to use the bathroom. Badly.

I brush her hair from her cheek. She untied it earlier, letting it cascade around her beautiful face.

I kiss the top of her head.

She moans and clings a little harder to my arm.

My eyes move to her phone still charging in the power outlet. I pull up the article that caught my attention on the flight back from Nashville last night on my laptop and re-read the over-the-top headline.

I doubt this is a coincidence.

Arianne startles awake. “Oh, God, my bladder is screaming at me.”

I laugh. “You go first.”

She frowns. “What do you mean?”

“I’ve been dying to go for a while, but Sleeping Beauty needed her sleep!” I tap the tip of her nose.

“Sorry.”

“Don’t be. Now, go!”

She rushes to the rear of the jet.

She’s back as quickly as she disappeared.

I close my laptop, get up and run to the bathroom.

I take care of business and return by her side.

I slide into my seat. “Are you hungry?”

“Starving,” she says.

“Me too.”

I call the flight attendant.

In no time, she delivers our food and drinks.

Arianne and I dig in.
